Are you one of those families that waits to open up presents until January?

Wrapping presents and playing Santa. Mostly about the anticipation for the kids.

The church has it's most important masses on the evening before the day of celebration (that day starts when the sun goes down the day before). So the Easter vigil and Christmas vigil are both big deals. Guessing it relates to that.
